- RoboProcessBench: Benchmarking Process-Aware Understanding in Vision-Language Robotic Manipulation
Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly explored as visual critics, reward generators, and failure detectors in robotic manipulation. These roles implicitly require models to judge not only final task success, but also how a manipulation execution is physically and temporally progressing. How...
- GenHOI: Contact-Aware Humanoid-Object Interaction by Imitating Generated Videos without Task-Specific Training
Humanoid-Object Interaction (HOI) is a fundamental capability for humanoid robots, yet it remains challenging due to the tight coupling between dynamic balance and stable interaction with diverse objects. Existing methods often require time-consuming task-specific policy training or rely on rigid tr...
- Diffusion Transformer World-Action Model for AV Scene Prediction
Action-conditioned world models let an autonomous vehicle predict future camera scenes from its own planned controls, enabling planning and simulation without real-world rollouts, but at compact, trainable scale the futures are ambiguous and the field's standard distortion metrics actively mislead: ...
- Trajectory-Level Redirection Attacks on Vision-Language-Action Models
Vision-language-action (VLA) policies bring natural language into closed-loop robot control, enabling robots to execute manipulation tasks directly from text instructions. The same interface gives text a recurring role in control because the prompt is reused at every replanning step, and each prompt...
- EmbodiSteer: Steering Embodiment-Agnostic Visuomotor Policies with Joint-Space Guidance for Zero-Shot Cross-Embodiment Deployment
Scalable robot imitation learning relies on large-scale heterogeneous data from diverse robots or body-free data, making Cartesian end-effector actions a key interface for embodiment-agnostic policy learning. However, end-effector-only abstraction leaves Cartesian policies unaware of the deployed ro...
- SERF: Spatiotemporal Environment and Robot Feature Map for Long-Horizon Mobile Manipulation
Long-horizon robot mobile manipulation requires continual reasoning about localization, environment changes, and task progress, all of which are challenging to infer from image observations alone. In this paper, we show that conditioning a mobile manipulation policy on a spatiotemporal feature map i...
- An Embodied Simulation Platform, Benchmark, and Data-Efficient Augmentation Framework for Wet-Lab Robotics
Wet-lab robots can improve the reproducibility, throughput, and safety of biomedical experiments, but scaling their learning requires customizable simulators for safe and reproducible task generation, open editable laboratory assets, and efficient pipelines that turn limited demonstrations into usab...
- Bounding Boxes as Goals: Language-Conditioned Grasping via Neuro-Symbolic Planning
For robotics to be effectively integrated into household or industrial environments, machines must adapt to natural-language prompts in real time. Although Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have enabled zero-shot generalization in robot task and motion planning (TAMP), current state-of-the-art approache...
- AIR-VLA+: Decoupling Movement and Manipulation via Cascaded Dual-Action Decoders with Asymmetric MoE for Aerial Robots
Aerial manipulation systems have long suffered from representation coupling in end-to-end control, as platform-level Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) movement and end-effector-level arm manipulation differ substantially in action scale, dynamics, and control objectives. In this paper, we propose AIR-VL...
- SemanticXR: Low Power and Real-time Queryable Semantic Mapping with an Object-Level Device-Cloud Architecture
Semantic mapping is a core service that enables grounded interactions in emerging Extended Reality (XR) applications such as AI assistants and spatial object search. Deploying this capability on mobile XR devices requires a system that is open-vocabulary, real-time, and low-power. Existing approache...
- Prediction-Powered Causal Inference by Automatic Debiased Machine Learning and Semi-Supervised Riesz Regression
This study investigates semiparametric efficient estimation of causal and structural parameters in a semi-supervised setting. In our setting, unlabeled auxiliary regressors are available in addition to labeled observations consisting of outcomes and regressors. Our goal is to construct estimators of...
- ProtoX-AD: Self-Explainable Time Series Anomaly Detection and Characterization
Recent advances in time series anomaly detection (TSAD) have highlighted the effectiveness of self-supervised classification-based approaches. These methods apply transformations to normal training samples, training a classifier to recognize transformation-specific patterns that help identify anomal...
- REMAL: Residual Equilibrium Manifold Active Learning for Surrogate-Based Multidisciplinary Design Analysis
Multidisciplinary design analysis of coupled engineering systems requires the computation of equilibrium states in which all disciplinary coupling variables are mutually consistent. Conventional fixed-point iteration resolves this consistency problem separately at each design point, which can become...
